Step 1 -Lightly grease a 10-inch cast-iron skillet or a 10-inch round baking dish.

Step 2 -Use the flour to lightly dust a work surface.

Step 3 -On the prepared work surface, place 3 rows of 4 of the frozen biscuits with the sides touching and let them stand until they are thawed but still cool to the touch, about 30-45 minutes.

Step 4 -Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

Step 5 -In a medium pan over medium-high heat, add enough of the water so that it is 1/2-3/4 of the way full, and bring to a boil.

Step 6 -In a large bowl, add the dried apricots and the boiling water and lightly stir to combine.

Step 7 -Let the apricots stand in the water, about 10 minutes, then drain them well.

Step 8 -Transfer the drained apricots to a cutting board and chop them. Set them aside.

Step 13 -Evenly sprinkle the cinnamon-brown sugar mixture over the butter layer.

Step 14 -Evenly sprinkle the chopped apricots and the pecans over the cinnamon-brown sugar mixture.

Step 16 -Use a sharp knife to cut the dough roll into 12 (1-inch-thick) slices.

Step 17 -Arrange the dough slices in the prepared cast-iron skillet with one of the swirl-sides up, and bake until the rolls are golden and cooked through, about 35-40 minutes.

Step 18 -Transfer the cast-iron skillet to a wire rack and let the rolls cool slightly.

Step 19 -In a medium bowl, add the confectioners' sugar, the milk, and the vanilla extract and whisk to combine.
